This is a discussion on. What Mileage Your Car gives You and how you calculate your car's FE

I was Surprised as no Thread was present regarding Mileage & FE or maybe i might have missed it .so i decided to open up a thread to discuss & Compare The Fuel Economy the Car Given to the end user.

It maybe petrol or diesel, Mileage is Crucial to us as for the Never Ending Fuel Hike

So A simple Question.

what kind of fuel efficiency does your beloved give u??

I Own a Swift VDI March 2012
For the first month my swift's FE was between 11-12 KM-PL
now after 3 & Half Months it Still Gives me 16KMPL of mileage.
as for 16kmpl i was surprised but was convinced by my maruti service center
manager who informed me that this is normal for swift under city driving.

As For calculating Fe i fill the tank to it's fullest I personally shake the car(much to the amusement of onlookers) when the guy fills in. So my tankful is actually tankful
next the Trip A meter is set to 0
After about a normal city driving of 80-100kms i refuel the car to tank full ( The same Way ) .
then divide the number of km on TRIP A with liter's of fuel poured into the tank , and i get a rough idea about the FE of my swift

Looking forward for Everyone's Views and FE of their Car

hope you all like this thread
I apologize for my Grammar or if i have in any way broken any rules of this forum

My dear,it sounds impossible to me too many times,and yes..these figures are with 100% A/C.
Ask any City owner and you will come to know that city really gives this FE.
And yes,this is 'purely' highway FE,not overall.

Rest +100000000 to Raj's heavy foot concept,ask me I am driving a Corolla D-4D,light foot means,this car refuses to even move in a right manner many times.Only heavy foot.

^^Buddy the city mileage of your Swift and bike,both is astonishing.How you manage to get it?
And same is with the highway FE.Again same question.How you manage such astonishing figures which are very hard to digest for at least me?
